Okay! Now we're going to use the first workshop with the greek and latin roots and apply it! Yay applying things! Woohoo! Make up 2 words from the roots and use them in a sentence / paragraph / passage / whatever. And also give the word a definition! Photoethnology: The study of light in different people. Following the dryads to their secret place in the forest, Mischa was careful not to trip over the strange vines on the forest floor. The whole planet was a course of Photoethnology just waiting to happen. The sunlight effected everything in such different ways, she wondered why. Compudent: A tooth implant that wires information to your brain from a specific database. "So which archive did you get your compudent[/u] from?" Akika asked with dreamy eyes. Dami looked away skeptically, trying to hide a canine of his with tiny copper wires flashing from the lights in the office. "Actually it's from the Detective Station Database..." Akika gasped, obviously impressed.  Now USE AWAY! ^^ |

Oh! Oh! This is fun!!! It'd be easier if we could study some suffixes, though...
Okay... so...
#1
Misography: The recording of hatred.
In such a sour mood, I could think of nothing better to do than write. In writing so much, one would think it was something substancial, but upon re-reading it, I found it to be nothing but pathetic misography.
#2
Hospihabic: To dwell with guests.
Try as he could, the argumentative boy could not keep his mouth shut. His mother kicked him out of the house, and with no one else to turn to, his close friends soon found themselves in a hospihabic situation.

Oooh I love your words. They're so much better than mine. xD
And yes, a prefix and suffix lesson was due next, but I wanted everyone to make their words first so that they could tweak them later.
Your words are so cool. T_T

Yeah, but it took me quite a while of studying your lists to be satisfied with them. :-p
I like the idea of photoethnology, though. Lol.

I think I'm too young for this. I cannot make up words.

No one is too young to make up words. It's called "neologism". :3 At least I think that's what it's called...

lol. I don't really understand it, anyways. Maybe I'll try my luck at this....!
Geolevhypolith: To lift stone from under the earth.
It was a gloomy night in the underworld. The miner slaves were beginning a geolevhypolith, as they were instructed by their master.
How's that? I'll try another one!
Photopyr: The light of the fire
In the warm cabin a fire roared, and the gale outside was unnoticed. The photopyr reflected off a mirror in the room. A woman sat knitting in the warm room.

Really? Cool! I didn't think I could do it. I just chose the ones I'm more familiar with, and that I like, and randonmly threw them together. Yea,h and in the first one, my 'underworld' thing was inspired by a book I read. A very good book! Hehe lol  |

Hypnohypolith: To sleep under a rock; one that sleeps under a rock(yes, that is an odd thing to do...)
The little bug was a hypnohypolith, enjoying sleeping under rocks rather that out in the open where he could easily get squashed. Plus, it was actually quite comftorable.
Micromor: A small sized fool; one that is slightly foolish.
My best friend is a micromor. She occasionally embarasses or gets into trouble, and she's 4'7! (I like that word.. micromor... Hehe I think I could use my two words in a better context thought... Heck, I'm putting more words!!)
Photophob: One that fears light.
According to legend, a vampire is a photophob, fearing light.
Pyrpsych:To contol fire with the mind; one that controls fire with their mind
You know what's awesome? I can control fire with my brain! My mom calls me a pyrpsych, whatever the heck that means....(ooh I like that one too!!)
